Abstract: [Problem] COVID-19 caused by coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, cytokine release syndrome, cytokine release syndrome with CAR (chimeric antigen receptor)-T therapy, sepsis, systemic inflammatory response syndrome, hemophagocytic syndrome, macrophage activation syndrome, influenza, GVHD, systemic vasculitis, Kawasaki disease, Takayasu arteritis, and other diseases, if severe, can cause acute respiratory distress syndrome, disseminated intravascular coagulation syndrome, acute circulatory insufficiency, multi-organ failure, and other symptoms which are one of the causes of death. [Solution to Problem] Compounds represented by formulas (1) to (4) are effective when taken orally and can be expressed in smaller amounts than mangiferin.

Abstract: There are no drugs or food medicines that can prevent or ameliorate, among side effects caused by drugs, particularly peripheral neuropathy that is caused by anticancer drugs such as oxaliplatin. An agent for preventing or ameliorating peripheral neuropathy including at least one selected from xylitol, L-talitol, and D-threitol as an active ingredient can ameliorate tingling limbs, limb pain, decreased deep tendon reflexes, muscle weakness, allodynia, hyperalgesia, hand fine motor skill disability, gait disturbance, stumbling, falling, flexion impairment (difficulty or inability to sit on one's knees, cross-legged, sideways, in a chair, etc.), limb paralysis, or the like, induced by drugs such as anticancer drugs or diabetes.

Abstract: A control apparatus which is inexpensive and highly effective in shortening a start-up time, a method of controlling the control apparatus, and a digital broadcast receiving apparatus are provided. The control apparatus includes: a control microcomputer; at least one device; and a ROM which stores a simple control program, a main body program, and a boot loader. The simple control program includes an interrupt program having an interrupt for starting the at least one device so that the at least one device is activated, accepts an interrupt signal requesting for the interrupt from the at least one device during loading of the main body program, and performs the interrupt.

Abstract: A vulcanized molded article comprising a blend of about 5-90% by weight of a thermoplastic copolyester or block copolyester elastomer and about 95-10% by weight of a vulcanizable synthetic or natural rubber having an improved adhesive property with polyester fibers or fabrics.

Abstract: An intimate polyblend of about 5-90% by weight of a thermoplastic copolyester or block copolyester elastomer and about 95-10% by weight of a vulcanizable synthetic or natural rubber. The preferred copolyester is a copolyester of polybutylene terephthalate and the prefered block copolyetherester is polybutylene terophthalate-poly (tetramethylene oxide) glycol block copolyester. These polyblends can be vulcanized to elastomeric molded articles which exhibit an excellent oil and oxygen/ozone resistance even at elevated temperatures, a high impact strength, an increased scuff resistance and an improved flexibility at low and high temperatures. The vulcanized molded articles also have an improved adhesive property with polyester fibers or fabrics.

Abstract: Disclosed is a flame retarding polyester composition comprising a thermoplastic polyester, a polymeric halogen containing a flame retarding agent, and a selected phosphite compound.

Abstract: A thermoplastic copolyester elastomer which comprises dicarboxylic acid component mainly composed of terephthalic and phthalic acids, wherein the molar ratio of terephthalic acid to phthalic acid is from about 80/20 to 35/65, and diol component mainly composed of 1,4-butanediol. The elastomer has excellent thermal stability and weatherability and can be improved in the elastomeric properties by orientation of polymer molecule before crystallization.

Abstract: A thermoplastic resinous composition comprising a blend of:(a) 50-99 wt % of a polyester compound containing a dicarboxylic acid component, said dicarboxylic acid component to include at least 50 mol % terephthalic acid, and a glycol component including at least 50 mol % 1,4-butanediol;(b) 50-1 wt % of .alpha.-olefine copolymer; wherein the weight percentages are based on the total weight of the polyester and .alpha.-olefine copolymer;(c) 0.1-20 parts by weight of an epoxy compound having one or two epoxy groups attached to a molecule, the proportion of said epoxy compound to be based on the blend of the polyester and .alpha.-olefine copolymer.This composition exhibits a desirable combination of bonding strength and processability, that makes it suitable for use in hot melt coatings and adhesives.

Abstract: A flame retardant, non-dripping, shape-retaining thermoplastic polyester resin is disclosed comprising (a) a linear polyester, (b) a halogenated aromatic compound, (c) a zirconium compound, preferably in combination with antimony trioxide, and (d) a fibrous reinforcing agent.
